The BVV 2540 Nanofiltration Skid delivers industrial-grade ethanol recovery at up to 30 gallons per hour — without heat, without compromise. Engineered for Class 1 Division 1 environments, this skid is built for serious extraction operations that demand throughput, precision, and energy efficiency in a single compact footprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the BVV 2540 Nanofiltration Skid\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional rotary evaporators are slow, labor-intensive, and thermally destructive to sensitive compounds. The BVV 2540 Nanofiltration Skid replaces up to 7× 50L rotary evaporators with a single, automated system — recovering ethanol at scale without applying heat. This means your target cannabinoids, terpenes, and botanical extracts remain intact while you dramatically cut energy costs and labor overhead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike falling film evaporators that consume significant power and require constant thermal management, the 2540 Skid operates on membrane-based nanofiltration technology driven by a Variable Frequency Drive pump. The result is a system that qualifies for energy-saving rebates, runs continuously with minimal operator intervention, and scales with your production demands — available in 15 GPH and 30 GPH configurations with Solvent Recovery or Purification membrane options.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeat-Free Solvent Recovery\u003c\/strong\u003e – Recovers ethanol and methanol without thermal degradation, preserving sensitive target compounds throughout the process.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReplace Up to 7× Rotary Evaporators\u003c\/strong\u003e – Consolidate your extraction floor and eliminate bottlenecks with a single high-throughput skid.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnergy Rebate Eligible\u003c\/strong\u003e – Dramatically lower energy consumption compared to falling film evaporators qualifies this unit for utility energy-saving rebate programs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eC1D1 Certified Design\u003c\/strong\u003e – Built to Class 1 Division 1 standards for safe operation in solvent-rich, hazardous environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVariable Frequency Drive Control\u003c\/strong\u003e – Precise, adjustable flow control via VFD for optimized membrane performance across varying feed concentrations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual Configuration Options\u003c\/strong\u003e – Choose Solvent Recovery or Purification membranes to match your specific extraction workflow.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated Chiller \u0026amp; Heat Exchanger\u003c\/strong\u003e – Inline retentate cooling maintains optimal operating temperatures without external equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact Industrial Footprint\u003c\/strong\u003e – At 30\"×39\"×79\" and 400 lbs, this skid fits into existing extraction suites without major facility modifications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eUse Cases\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLarge-Scale Ethanol Extraction Facilities\u003c\/strong\u003e – Replace multiple rotary evaporators and recover ethanol continuously at 15 or 30 GPH to keep pace with high-volume biomass processing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Extract Purification\u003c\/strong\u003e – Use the Purification membrane configuration to concentrate and refine botanical extracts with minimal thermal impact.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSolvent Recycling Operations\u003c\/strong\u003e – Recover and recycle ethanol or methanol for reuse, reducing solvent costs and waste disposal requirements.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCannabis \u0026amp; Hemp Processors\u003c\/strong\u003e – Ideal for winterized crude processing where preserving cannabinoid and terpene profiles is critical.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommercial Extraction Labs Scaling Up\u003c\/strong\u003e – Upgrade from batch-based evaporation to continuous-flow nanofiltration without rebuilding your entire facility.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnergy-Conscious Operations\u003c\/strong\u003e – Facilities seeking to reduce their carbon footprint and qualify for utility rebates through lower-energy solvent recovery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDirections for Use\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition the skid in a C1D1-rated area with adequate ventilation and access to 230V\/60Hz\/1-phase power (13A).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnect 1.5\" intake and retentate lines to your feed tank and collection vessel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnect 1\/2\" permeate and pressure relief lines per the included plumbing diagram.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower on the Polyscience chiller and allow the heat exchanger to reach operating temperature before starting the pump.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse the VFD panel to set target flow rate; adjust manual pressure controls to achieve desired transmembrane pressure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMonitor the dual 0–1000 PSI pressure gauges and C1D1 flowmeter throughout operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe 700 PSI pressure relief valve with diversion line provides automatic overpressure protection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNote: This unit is designed for bulk solvent recovery (approximately 90% of total solvent volume).
